Fuchs wheel (copy) gets new paint

 Had to mask / paint the last wheel, so that i could get the winter tires under. and whats best, i might get a chrome bumper to the front, with the blinker of course. damn, this little bug is getting pretty. have to locate the center caps to the wheels also. and some chromed bolts. and a rear seat too...and what else?

Winter strikes back....

Its not easy with the mother nature, first you want to change to the the drums to accept porsche wheels with summer tyres, and then the nature jokes with you by dropping snow from the sky...

Ok it also started to be very cold working outside in a great flu... So i only made half of the intended work... But the 7x15 fuchs wheels are in the back of the bug....now i only have to swap the disc brakes in front... And the ghia needs some brake check also... Something is wrong inside of a front drum.,.

fooks detailing

even this didnt go so well, the result was pretty ok.

the paint wasnt so dry when i took the wheel at home, 

so theres some flaws :-( but the ghia looks good anyways.

i think it looks just the way that it should be. :-)

stance-polizei is in da house!

the fooks fakes are just great, especially in "detailed" mode.

the front is too narrow for my taste, and its so low that 

...well its too low to drive, as much as i do

have to think a bit, ...let it speak to me...

the rear is next. have to detail the rest of the wheels.

and i have to put the engine also to the ghia.

the 2012 cruiser will be this one. and the race car, the black one.

thats a plan. veljekset hamara panel van will be sleeping... (in 2012)

( have to make some detailing, to the rears too...)

...shoes to choose...

17 inch AR torques, would be cool also. ;-)

but ill run the "classsics"

is it too low or not?

3 things that happenedd today

1. i made some wheel upgrades as you might have seen.

2. major fog, in the cottage area, really a nice one, 

3. had to cut all my hair off, due to the meds, 

im losing my hair big time. :-( but who gives a shit.

Al Reed is the king! - after me! ;-)

this looks pretty good, for me at least, 

im not sure how they should be painted, 

(even i have had many 4,5 original fuchs sets)

my standards are not so high, 

The chromed BRM wheels got also a touch of Black.
and yeah... they are with winter tyres ;-)

 Not a bad setup?

but ... the famous Fuchs detailer is the king,
to have nerves like steel 

or some great way to use professional stuff + lots of know how, 

how to do them right, BUT this is my first try to make, 

foochs replicas look even better. nd i had to try the BRM ´s too ;-)

its not an easy task, if you ask from me. :-)
